Abstract: EDITORIAL COMMENT Inhibitors of sulphydryl enzymes are known to block gastric acid secretion.The effect of three such inhibitors on particular enzymes in the gastric mucosa, as demonstrated by histochemical methods, is described in this paper in an attempt to explain the mechanism by which acid secretion is blocked.Further work will be needed to decide whether these inhibitors act by blocking energy-producing systems or by inhibiting a specific enzyme system involved in the produc- tion of hydrogen ion.
